[QUOTE="s*t*a*r*m*a*n, post: 44694, member: 175004"] Hi thought i would start a new thread on broadband providers. I am on 1.5 meg cable broadband from blueyonder. They have just upgraded from 1 meg to 1.5 meg for the same price so its 50% faster than it was. I think they did the upgrade when my modem went off and reset other night. I was running some file sharing software at this time and after the reset i noticed that i got a tremendous speed increase for about 15 minutes which i have never had since. I got literally 4 megs a second and i calculated that i downloaded a 685 megabyte file in 13 minutes which is fantastic BUT now im getting much much less, i get about 20kbs average and maybe hitting 170kbs a sec but i think on a 1.5 meg it should be about 180kbs max roughly. Is there anyway of getting those speeds again that i was getting for a short time? does anyone have any similar stories to share or suggestion? these broadband fixes don`t seem to do much as obviously they have capped my download speeds but it made me realise that my modem is capable of soooo much more :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
